Sadly I don't think you can upgrade the graphics chip

As for memory take a look at Crucial.com

The Graphics upgrade is a definate NO, the graphics chips are soldered to the Mobo.

The CPU upgrade will also probably be impossible as you have an Ultra Low Voltage CPU and if its the same as the TR Series (Its predescessor) it was also soldered to the Mobo.

The RAM Upgrade appears to be the only feasible solution, I would suggest Crucial.com for this. I have done the legwork for you, these are the compatible Micro Dimms:
